22 Holder St, Turner ACT 2612

And the locale is perfection…a leafy historic enclave, steeped in the garden city vision of Walter Burly and Marion Mahoney Griffin. The home resting on a quiet street, part looping, with central gardens, dotted with old growth trees. It is a few steps to Haig Park, moments from all the wonderful eateries and bars of O'Connor and Braddon, and an easy stroll to the CBD.

The form is impressive with its mixed scheme of raw brick, timber panelling and linear lines of glazing. Entry is via a shady garden path, where gated access gives way to a sunny courtyard garden, enclosed by green walls. Or you can drive into the double garage via the rear driveway, enjoying the convenience and security of internal access.

We love the way the external wall of recycled brick continues within, warming the entry hall with its tactile mix of colours and textures. And the way the gas fireplace is also set within brick, providing a cosy focal point on cooler nights. While a wall of glass sliders is screened by soft, billowing sheers, spilling to an alfresco patio, so you can dine in the northern light and enjoy the tranquillity of the garden.

The kitchen is all white on white, softened by the warm texture of waterfall, organic stone worktops. Banks of cabinetry and a walk-in-pantry provide a spot for everything, while quality appliances from Miele take care of family meals and entertaining. The whole space openly conversational…the dining table set beneath a soaring void set with clerestory windows, so you can dine in a blessing of light.

Upstairs is given over to three welcoming bedrooms, with the master nicely sequestered to the north. A hallway, fitted with low-lying open shelves for book storage and views to the floor below sets the scene. The master suite, a world to itself, with its array of rooms - bathroom with freestanding tub, shower room and separate powder room - evoking a sense of private escape. The bedroom has seamless storage and a lovely ingress of light via a row of windows and glass sliders that open the space to the balcony.

A peaceful duo of bedrooms rests at the opposing end of the home, both with ready access to a family bathroom and separate powder room. Both have built-in-robes, while bedroom one has a wall of open shelves and sits across from an additional walk-in-robe. This lovely room also enjoys glass sliders that open directly onto the central courtyard. All the wet rooms are elegantly finished in a concordant minimalist ethos, and feature floor-to-ceiling tiling in textured white and a ton of storage, including stone topped vanities.

Catch up with friends on the weekend, for drinks or barefoot bowls, at the RUC, stroll through parkland to the fabulous O'Connor shops with local favs including - Flatheads, The Duxton, Tu Do and the IGA. Stroll to the Braddon precinct, with its myriads of unique restaurants, bars, and boutique shopping experiences. Or let the kids bike ride, on the dedicated training tracks, within Turner Parkland. The home is also close to private and public schools, transport including light rail and is an easy stroll to both the ANU and the CBD.
